Russians were warned about a fine for washing cars in the wrong place

There is a fine for washing a vehicle in the wrong place. Under certain circumstances, it can amount to 10 thousand rubles. Maxim Tishakov, associate professor of the Department of Law at Moscow City Pedagogical University, told about this on March 23.

"Washing a car requires taking into account the provisions of current legislation, both federal regulations and regional legal norms. In particular, violations of land and environmental legislation and harm to the environment are not allowed," Tishakov said in an interview with the Prime agency.

According to him, in accordance with federal legislation, it is forbidden to wash a car near reservoirs and in forests. The full list of prohibited places is available in the legislation of the subjects of the Russian Federation.
